Cloud-bow

2008.02.20

A Fire Rainbow The rarest of all naturally occurring atmospheric phenomena. The picture was captured this week on the Idaho / Washington border, the event lasted about one hour. Clouds have to be cirrus, at least 20k feet in altitude, with just the right amount of ice crystals and the sun has to hit the clouds at precisely 58 degrees........

This photo is from a friend..........

More fun pics....
